<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13pt; line-height: 115%;">LAHORE - Pakistan has been elevated to the
status of the fourth big power after India, England and Australia in terms of
the percentage of revenue to be received from the International Cricket Council
(ICC) in the next eight years from broadcasting and other rights on ICC
fixtures.</span><br style="content: '';" />
According to the PCB official, the Pakistan
Cricket Board (PCB) claimed to have made ‘extraordinarily significant gains’ at
the ICC annual meeting at Melbourne on Thursday. “Of the three major
concessions that PCB chairman Najam Sethi was able to secure to Pakistan’s
great advantage are: After N Srinivasan’s election as the first ICC chairman in
a landslide, India has officially turned the Memorandum of Understandings
(MOUs) signed earlier this year with regard to six rubbers between the two
nations, four of these to be hosted by the PCB in the UAE or Pakistan with
mutual consent, into binding agreements straightaway. The six tours are now
part of the Future Tours Programme (FTP) and are to be played from 2015 to
2023,” he added.<br style="content: '';" />
Another major achievement was the ICC agreeing
Thursday to grant Pakistan the fourth rank after the ‘Big-3’ – India, England
and Australia – in terms of the percentage of revenue to be received from the
ICC in the next eight years from broadcasting and other rights on ICC fixtures.<br style="content: '';" />
The third big recognition is, the ICC confirming
Pakistan to get the position of the global body’s president for one year with
effect from June 2015.<br style="content: '';" />
<br style="content: '';" />
PCB chairman Najam Sethi said from Melbourne: “The
PCB has organised itself and planned to get maximum advantage for Pakistan
cricket from an extremely precarious position. We have accomplished all our
objectives. And I am positive that in the times to come, Pakistan cricket shall
greatly benefit from what the PCB has been able to obtain for it today.”<br style="content: '';" />
India suspended all bilateral series with Pakistan
in the wake of 2008 terrorist attacks on Mumbai, which New Delhi blamed on
militants based across the border. The Pakistan team did tour India for a short
limited over series in December 2012-January 2013 but a full series was not
agreed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).<br style="content: '';" />
Pakistan has not hosted any international cricket
since terrorist attacks on the Sri Lankan team bus in March 2009. When the
series goes ahead it will mark the biggest success for Pakistan in recent years
after a prolonged isolation at the international level due to security fears.
The cricket matches between Pakistan and India are widely seen as the most
sought after in cricket globally, with billions watching them on television
around the world.<o:p></o:p></div>

This is a sea change from the situation when
Pakistan stood utterly isolated when Najam Sethi was reappointed as the PCB
chairman by the patron, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in the second week of
February.</div>

101 Sports: World Cup 2014: Vanishing spray 'could see more free-kick goals'

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Howard Webb has accidentally set off a can of the new vanishing spray, designed to cease defenders at the World Cup encroaching at free-kicks, much to the amusement of his fellow referees. <br />"You ought to be nice with that," Australian whistler Ben Williams jokes along with his English colleague, a former policeman. "It's like pulling a can of Mace.â�� <br />"It's the first time I have used it," chuckles Webb as Fifa's team of referees for Brazil 2014 cease their exercise to mockingly applaud him. <br />The Premier League referee, who issued 14 yellow cards, & reds, in the 2010 World Cup final between Germany & the Netherlands, quickly gets to grip with a new device that is likely to attract as much attention as goal-line know-how in Brazil. <br />Used for several years in Brazil & Argentina for domestic footy, it was trialled at international level in the coursework of last summer's Under-20 World Cup, & also featured at the Club World Cup last December. <br />"You spray a circle around the ball & a line ten yards [9.15m] away for the defenders," explains Webb as he demonstrates the way it is meant to be completed moments later. <br />"It will assist us in getting the players back at a free-kick &, in turn, that gives the attacking team a better opportunity of generating something from that set-piece." <br />Webb believes that with defenders no longer able to creep closer to free-kick takers, the spray "could lead to more goals from free-kicks" at this World Cup. <br />That point is underlined as the referees start their session & the first free-kick taken with the defenders standing behind the spray curls in to the top corner. "Just like Pirlo," Webb smiles, in reference to Italian midfielder Andrea. <br />The 42-year-old official is making his debut with the new spray can, which referees will hook in to a holster on their shorts, but a quantity of his colleagues have used it before, & think it will show popular.</div>
